Summary

"No trap can hold Homer Simpson—uh, but I'm not Homer Simpson! I'm the Pie Man! Homer Simpson, away! I mean, the Pie Man!" - Homer Simpson (The Pie Man)

When Lisa is publicly humiliated, Homer transforms his love of pastries and violence into a new alter ego: Pie Man. But when Burns discovers this hero's secret identity, Homer becomes a tool for evil and a potential Dalai Lama assaulter. Come for the slight nod to Raimi's Spider-Man, stay for as many '60s Batman references a post 9/11 audience can stomach.
